5.Follow your progress with the matrix and the displays.

The matrix— When the man- ual mode is se- lected, the matrix

will show a 1/4-Track mile track. As

you walk or run,

the indicators around the track will light in succes- sion until the entire track is lit. The track will then disappear and the indicators will again begin to light in succession.

The Calories/Distance display—This display will show the approxi- mate number of calories you have burned and the distance that you

have walked or run during your workout. The dis- play will change from one measurement to the other every few seconds.

The Incline/Pulse dis- play—This display will show the incline level of the treadmill and your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sen- sor.

The Time/Pace

display—This display will show the elapsed time and your pace (pace is measured in minutes per mile). Note: When a per-

sonal trainer quick program is selected, the display will show the time remaining in the program in- stead of the elapsed time. The display will change from one measurement to the other every few sec- onds.

The Speed display— This display will show the speed of the walking belt in miles or kilometers per hour.

To review specific information, press the Display button repeatedly until the displays show the infor- mation that you are most interested in viewing.

6.Measure your heart rate if desired. Before using the

handgrip pulse sensor, remove the sheets of clear plastic from

the metal con-Contacts tacts. In addition,

make sure that your hands are clean.

To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the metal contacts—avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the Incline/Pulse display will show one or two dashes and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.

7.Turn on the fan if desired.

The fan features low and high speed settings. Press the fan button repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the fan. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will turn off automatically after a few minutes.

8.When you are finished exercising, remove the key from the console.

Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest setting. The incline must be at the lowest setting when you fold the treadmill to the storage posi- tion, or you may damage the treadmill. Next, re- move the key from the console and put it in a secure place.

When you are finished using the treadmill, switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical compo- nents may wear prematurely.
